ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT

What Are The 5-Year Organizational Guidelines to Developing A Comprehensive Crisis Management Program?

The Canadian Critical Incident Stress Foundation is committed to assisting organizations in the development of their Crisis Management Programs by providing a framework, consisting of a series of recommendations and guidelines, with an increasing level of complexity over 5 years.

Organizational guidelines are critical in helping organizations build their capacity to change and achieve greater effectiveness by developing, improving, and reinforcing strategies, structures, and processes. The organization guidelines help support continuous change that enables organizations to improve gradually, by making small, incremental changes.

If you would like us to help you develop, restructure, or improve implementation of your Crisis Management Program,

Supporting Your Members Through Trauma

Through two of the CCISF's initiatives, Camp F.A.C.E.S. (Family and Children of Emergency Services) and Camp F.A.C.E.S. PTSD Family Retreats, we support members and their families diagnosed with PTSD and those families who have lost a loved one suddenly, through line of duty death (LODD), or suicide. Camp F.A.C.E.S. helps to build connections with others who share similar experiences, provide support to families and their children, foster development of new social relationships, reduces a sense of isolation, and provides a unique opportunity for families to support themselves and others, all in a safe and supportive environment.
